Active Communities
Three communities are actively selling in Riverton as of mid-2026.
Mountain Ridge is a community built by Edge Homes, one of Utah's prominent production builders known for larger floor plans with mountain-view lots. Mountain Ridge targets buyers seeking detached single-family homes in Riverton's foothills, where lot sizes and views command a premium.
Parkside offers two product types built by Wright Homes: single-family detached homes and townhomes. Wright Homes is a well-regarded Utah builder with communities across the Wasatch Front, and Parkside gives buyers a choice between a lower-maintenance attached option and a larger freestanding home within the same Riverton neighborhood.
River Ridge Lane is a Symphony Homes community positioned at the eastern edge of Riverton. Symphony builds custom-leaning production homes on individual lots, and River Ridge Lane reflects that positioning with larger floor plans and more design flexibility than typical tract developments.
Home Prices
New construction in Riverton reflects the city's position as a more established, supply-constrained market. Prices range from $795,900 to $1,200,000, with a median around $804,900. These are among the higher base prices for new construction in the greater Salt Lake area.
Home sizes are substantial, running from 3,379 square feet on the lower end to 5,590 square feet for the largest available homes. Buyers in Riverton are generally purchasing larger, higher-end homes rather than entry-level product.
Quick move-in inventory is available in Riverton, which is notable given the limited overall supply. Buyers who need to close quickly should ask builders about move-in-ready status at the time of inquiry.
Why Buy New Construction Here
Riverton's appeal lies in its combination of established infrastructure, good schools, and proximity to the mountains. The city is served by Canyons School District on the west side and Jordan School District on the east side, both of which serve the area with multiple high schools and neighborhood elementary schools.
Freeway access runs through I-15 to the east and Bangerter Highway to the west, making Riverton practical for commuters heading to Salt Lake City, the Draper and Sandy tech corridor, or south toward Utah County. The city also offers direct trail access into the Oquirrh Mountain range for outdoor recreation.
Because land availability in Riverton is tighter than in Eagle Mountain or American Fork, buyers should expect limited inventory and faster absorption. The 14 active homes Guide Homes currently tracks reflect real scarcity rather than slow market conditions.
